I have a few from my Saito twins, would be kinda nice to be able to do a visual inspection, I would be concerned as to whether you would get enough volume through them for a turbine though.

They were supplied with some of the original RAM 750's...mine was S/N 0042, and it came with one as I recall. I used it, but not any more.
It is still in my fuel system parts kit.

Dreamworks RC sell some nice transparent Festo filters, they come in 4mm and 6mm size. I have one 4mm on my P60se and works great, and you can see when it gets dirt. I also tried the engine with out it and got the same pump parameters, I'm guessing if you could get the 6mm inline for the P120 it should be great.
